Luke’s New Ride
Not to be outdone by Casey, I got myself a new ride this weekend. And I think mine is even lighter than Casey’s bike. Take a look at her, and let me know what you think.
It is an early 90’s Specialized Rockhopper. I think the fork will work on the Rock Hopper that I got when I was 13 years old and recently converted to a single speed. If it doesn’t work, then I’ll eventually make this a singe speed.
NOTE: I am only using one finger to hold my bike up at arm’s length, so suck on that!
NOTE #2: Yes, my fly is down in this picture. I was too lazy to re-do it.

Sweet ride. I would put some wheels on it before racing. You could just put a seat on it and skip along at the rogaine (kinda like a stick horse).
When will you know if it fits your current bike? If it doesn’t fit, can you use your old companents to make it into a ridable bike?
I want that bike. I’ll double your money, dude. I’ll even throw in my old GT fork and a back-rub. OK, maybe I should keep my GT fork.
That things looks super cool.
